I ask because I'm at that stage, as are most of my friends, and I know four couples who've split in the last year alone and of at least two other marriages that have been in trouble for some time. And it could so easily be me too, if I'm honest. Life is such a bloody grind. So many people are unhappy in their jobs and worried they'll be laid off. Most of our children are still quite young, demanding and labour-intensive. Families are spread out so meaningful levels of help and support are few and far between and couple-time is almost non-existent. So many of us just seem to be really busy, stressed, fed up, bored and just want to get off the merry-go-round, but can't. Are we all just having a mid-life crisis?
